Eczema is not directly inherited, but a pregnant woman with eczema may have a higher likelihood of having a child who also develops eczema or other atopic conditions, due to genetic factors. The exact mechanism is complex and involves both genetic predisposition and environmental influences. While the baby may not inherit eczema itself, they may be more susceptible to developing it later in life if there is a family history. It's important for pregnant women with eczema to manage their condition with the guidance of a healthcare professional.
